flauschi01 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Hello. I know there are a lot of topics like this one, but i can´t figure out how to get all explorer notes because with the command "GiveAllExplorerNotes" my game crashes after 10 seconds. I am playing on PS5 and version 2.68 of ARK. Does anybody know how to avoid these crashes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiant_Flames1 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Well you could teleport to each explorer notes individual than transfer to another map (ex. Gensis, Scorched Earth) via the Obelisk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flauschi01 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 I only have the base game. I know two people who unlocked the trophy with this command on PS5 and their game didn't crash. Is there a workaround to stop it from crashing immediately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say much on the crashing on PS5 cause I don't own a PS5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flauschi01 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 Thanks for the suggestion. I guess i can't take the easy way and have to insert all commands one by one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PraiseTheFluppi Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Just to make this clear, because it seems to be a thing nobody ever mentions and I always see this misinformation everywhere related to the ARK note trophies: for perfect explorer, you DON'T need the dlc's. No scorched earth, no aberration, no genesis 1 or 2 and no extinction. Just the notes from the base game/The Island map. I played the game half a year ago and got all notes from The Island, every throphy popped. Haven't used the 'give all notes' command though, I only teleported to the last few notes I couldn't find on my own. The only trophy where you need a 'dlc' is the 'Survivor of the Center' trophy. But that's a free map, you don't need to pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flauschi01 Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Update 11/4/2021: I used the "GiveExplorerNote [id]" cheat from 1 to 1013. In the end i had to get the Dilo dossier note with: "setplayerpos -317920 274647 - 39249". Make sure to stop every 30 notes and run around for like 5 seconds to prevent crashes.

BULLBOYS-98 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 So I just completed this trophy. The way I did it is the giveexplorernote (insert number here) way. The only ones you need at 1-350, 688-690, and 853-857. Then I had to teleport to the Dilo dossier with the setplayerpos -317920 274647 - 39249 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germignion Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I recently got my trophy in V2.71; I got all the notes and files concerning the first 4 middle tabs on The Island to get the "Veteran Paleontologist" and "Master Explorer" trophies, but I did not get "Perfect Explorer". To get the 100%, you'll have to get the ??? and HLN-A notes, but I didn't think about that at the time, so I deleted my save game to try the cheat code thinking I was stuck. If the game crashes with the "GiveAllExplorerNotes" command, it's because the game makes you interact at the same time with all the notes you don't own (even the ones from the DLC when you didn't buy them), but since you're not supposed to get them all at the same time, the game crashes before you understand that you have all the notes. So you don't have your trophy and since you can't redo the order because you already have all the notes, it blocks you from getting the trophy. For the command to work, you must have only 1 document left to retrieve, unfortunately with the future updates and potential release of new DLC, the list of documents to invoke is getting longer and longer and therefore the maneuver takes more time (personally it took me 10H), at the moment it is certainly faster to search on the internet for the coordinates of the documents and to teleport than to make the command. I got my trophy by typing the commands "GiveExplorerNote - " from 2 to 1013 and then when I checked that I had ALL the documents on ALL the maps (except a dinosaur folder of Helena which is the explorer note 1) I entered the command "GiveAllExplorerNotes" and I got my trophy without the game crashing.WARNING! when you get to the HLN-A documents, the game may crash or the folders may not open automatically. Don't worry, the game gave you the documents anyway, as long as you see the exp bonus counter in the bottom right corner keep increasing it means that the game gave you the document, but this is not the time to use the "GiveAllExplorerNotes" command! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScavzYT Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Regarding giveallexplorernotes I manually got most of them with like 10 remaining and then activated the all command, it actually gave me the trophy but 100% is missing, opening my log in the game every note is there, how can i solve this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to delete your whole save and then enter the required Notes manually. This is the problem, ' Giveall' sounds good I think which is why a lot of advice to avoid it, actually gets avoided! But In the end, it actually wastes more time than it saves unless your're very lucky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kindajustin Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 So I've typed out the full 725 notes twice and tried the immediate giveall method 4 times. Crashed game 6/6 times. 0 trophies. Anyway to actually get Perfect Explorer or has my profoundly good luck struck again and fucked me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's a huge pain, but you might have to delete your whole save and re-type them over again. Not sure if you've been using this already, but @Optinooby has a great guide for all of the notes, where he figured out all of the note numbers you need - it's in this post and he has linked a video guide and a text guide on google docs: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Mesopithecus said, if you look on that thread, you will find everything, you are actually missing some notes still!! This game is glitchy, especially when using the admin codes, but unfortunately, this problem your encountering is not the games fault, but the fault lies on whatever guide you are following. Why, because you're only typing up to 725, when some of the required Notes are actually above that, this is what you're missing: Genesis 2 Chronicles #1 (853) Genesis 2 Chronicles #2 (854) Genesis 2 Chronicles #3 (855) Genesis 2 Chronicles #4 (856) Genesis 2 Chronicles #5 (857) One more thing is that typing up to 725 will get you the rest, but you are wasting a lot of unnecessary time doing that because only 235 of those 725 notes you typed out are actually all that is required. Because you typed out up to 725 twice, you actually typed out 1000 commands for literally no reason!! This is the difference between a general casual guide and a fully tested optimal guide. If you want to know for sure what is required, everything is in that thread linked above. I typed the required Notes along with their code in a Google doc Edited April 17, 2022 by Optinooby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kindajustin Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 @Mesopithecus @Optinooby thanks a whole bunch, that was really helpful. That method linked above worked first try. I guess the other guide is maybe outdated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xamthi Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I did follow your google doc, unfortunately I got all the trophies except for the 100% one. Has the requirement changed since then and am I missing some notes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ObsiEez Posted April 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) I FINALLY GOT IT. FINALLY GOT PERFECT EXPLORER. For everyone who needs help, you ONLY need everything that appears in "The Island" category. NO DLC IS REQUIRED. PERIOD. I also NEVER used the "giveallexporernotes" command either Categories needed (In The Island ONLY): ALL Helena Walker (1-30) ALL Edmund Rockwell (1-29) ALL Mei-Yin Li (1-31) ALL Gauys Nerva (1-30) BOTH Cutscenes in the ??? category, which is skipped out on on most guides (2 to the left of the Dossier category. You can't unlock these with a command. See below for further details) ALL Dossier entries (101) ALL Guardians (4) ALL HLN-A (8) NO OTHER CATEGORY OR NOTES FROM DLCS COUNT TOWARDS THE TROPHY. In order to get the 2 cutscene notes for the ??? category (which one of them I was personally missing). The first entry, "The Island Prologue" unlocks upon starting a new world on The Island. You'll know you got it because you'll have a small cutscene. The second one, "The Island Epilogue" is unlocked after beating the Overseer & seeing the cutscene. Do the command "Summon Ascensionteleporter_hard_c". You'll teleport to high tech looking area. Run down the massive hallway until you get to an open room, and approach the floating diamond shaped enemy. This is the Overseer. You'll need to kill it. Abuse the Kill command as well as creative mode to make quick work of the boss & if this was the only thing missing for you, the trophy SHOULD pop.
